1

Grill the chicken

Heat up your BBQ grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices. Place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes, then shred or chop it into bite-sized pieces.

2

Prep the crust

Preheat your oven to the temperature recommended by the pizza crust package instructions. Roll out the pizza dough on a floured surface to your desired thickness. Transfer the dough to a pizza stone or baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush olive oil over the surface of the dough to prevent it from getting too soggy.

3

Spread BBQ sauce

Take your favorite BBQ sauce and spread it evenly over the prepared pizza crust, leaving a small border around the edges for the crust. Use a spoon or a brush to ensure an even coating.

4

Add the toppings

Sprinkle the shredded BBQ chicken evenly over the BBQ sauce. Add a generous amount of grated mozzarella cheese on top. Optional: add additional toppings like thinly sliced red onions, chopped cilantro, or diced bell peppers.

5

Bake to perfection

Place the pizza in the preheated oven and bake according to the instructions on the pizza crust package, typically around 12-15 minutes or until the crust is golden and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

6

Gild your creation

Remove the pizza from the oven and let it cool slightly. Carefully place small sheets of edible gold leaf on top of the pizza, arranging them in a decorative pattern. This is your chance to make your pizza shine like the masterpiece it is!
